I think UMT provides a good learning environment with modern facilities and a strong focus on professional development. The faculty is supportive, and there are plenty of opportunities for growth. However, the fee structure can be a bit high for some students.

Lse is not a university but a school

hello i am a student doing my third year at the Lahore school of economics . Lse is a university with zero student life, Pathetic administration specially the retired majors. They have got few good instructors but still i would not recommend anyone to go there.

University management and staff

It is very sad to say that one of the best Pakistan institutes of education has such illiterate, unethical and stupid staff in its university. They need to hire qualified staff, so that they can maintain their good standing.

Extravagantly designed and taught course-framework

Studying at Kinnaird College had been a privilege of a lifetime. Not only you get the best of the teachers on campus but also you will be seated among the most competitive girls from around the country. The administration makes sure to maintain top merit for girls that helps them to become high achievers. Kinnaird has the only campus on Jail Road that reminisced about the British Colonial Rule as was constructed by the Britishers during the Indo-Pak rule. Its historic and beautiful building is accompanied by the coolest contemporary cafes and utilities that make it a perfect combo of amusement and study. Kinnaird is the only college and university for girls offering a Master in Philosophy in International Relations after PU and LUMS. All of the doctorates with remarkable contributions in their subjects help you to become a subject matter expert on IR through their extravagant teaching skills. They will guide you through the generic concepts and will then ask you to make detailed assignments on the allocated topics. These brainstorming exercises will help you demonstrate wider dimensions of the topics given, thereby teachers make discussions on the home assignments in the next class to amplify each student’s opinion. I greatly recommend studying at this University as it not only ticks all the boxes to help girls develop their prospective future but is also great for their personal development.
